Sicareme Online - Online insurance company
New webappRate Topic:

In this v1, main language is French, Arabic version in under translation. Further features are under development (mainly for admin back-office, not for guests or users), and more content is under writing / validation (legal terms, more static pages, etc.).

It's an online eCommerce platform for getting car and truck insurance policies in Morocco, plus university student general liability insurance.

Developed on Yii (1.1.10) of course, with PHP 5.3 / MySQL 5.5 on Apache. We used giix and pdf extension (with mPdf). Outside the contact form, guest views are not the standard Yii ones. There are lots of models, but just a handful of controllers and views.

Thanks Rodrigo for creating it Yes, I had enjoyed working with giix, especially GxActiveRecord and GxController. Almost every time I wanted to extend it for some feature I thought it hadn't, I found that in fact it had it. Awesome

For those who want to know, we used a mix of message translation for data-heavy views, and file translation for text-heavy views.

Of course, some data are translated in the db, and many input/db fields are localized.

The layout is still a simple 960px / 12 column with a simple rtl transformation. It got a bit tricky for certain css values (float:right vs. float: left) but we mixed message translation for these as well when styles are inline, or css file translation, or css cascading.
